Stacy,
Can you provide contact information offline for Brian, as I want to invite
DORS to participate in the convention Job Fair.  It's worth their while.

Please see below for information on the 31 Work Incentives Planner
positions for which the California Department of Rehabilitation is now
recruiting. As an aside, an added benefit to taking the Staff Services
Analyst exam is that there are three very good entry level positions that
fall under this classification: Employment Coordinator, Service
Coordinator, and Work Incentives Planner. These are all excellent
opportunities for people with disabilities looking for a good, entry level
state job.

Incentives Planner (WIP) positions throughout the state


The Department of Rehabilitation (DOR) is excited to advertise openings
for 31 Work Incentives Planner (WIP) positions throughout the state at
the Staff Services Analyst (SSA) level.

The WIP position is new to the DOR. WIPs provide a valuable and critical
service to DOR consumers receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
and/or Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits. WIPs work
within the Vocational Rehabilitation Service Delivery (VRSD) team to
provide intensive, individualized work incentives planning services.
These services empower consumers to make an informed choice about
employment with an understanding of how it may impact their benefits and
become self-sufficient.

The DOR is currently accepting applications from interested candidates
who have SSA list eligibility. For more information about the job
posting, please visit CalHR at:
http://jobs.spb.ca.gov/wvpos/more_info.cfm?recno=616539.

The DOR will begin interviews soon and anticipates filling the 31
positions immediately upon budget approval for State Fiscal Year
2015/2016.

Please share with interested parties or DOR consumers that may be
interested in these positions.

Thank you,
